Assessment
Participation ~ Assignments ~ Grading Philosophy
Assignments will be given on a regular basis. These assignments will be mostly hands on. However, some
terminology and blueprint reading must be acquired by study. These terms and skills will be used
throughout the school year.
Tests and quizzes are based on terms, blueprint reading and assignments. These tests and quizzes will be
given at random. Tests, quizzes and assignments will make up 67% of your grade. Because tests are based
mostly on demonstration, students will be required to learn procedures and terminology and perform tasks
based that which they have learned.
